Network Philosophy
Atlantech Online, Inc. is dedicated to providing the
highest quality of products and services. We have built
our backbone and our peering points to ensure we always
have enough capacity for our customers demanding needs.
We provide the ultimate physical environment necessary
to keep your access and servers up and running 24 hours
a day, 7 days a week.

Our completely redundant network routes around bottlenecks
or temporary failures that are a part of life with the
Internet. If another network is experiencing problems
we simply redirect traffic to another path to avoid
packet loss. With our BGP capabilities and our multiple
peering points we can move and distribute traffic to
maximize performance for our customers.

Redundancy
Atlantech Online links our Silver Spring and Rockville Data Centers and secondary POPs with
diverse entrance fiber paths that enable redundancy and speeds up to several
hundred Gigabits per second through the use of scalable DWDM technology.
This "mesh" configuration eliminates single
point-to-point fiber link failures to ensure the redundancy
allowing for uninterrupted flow of our customers data
across the network. Every piece of networking equipment,
from a customer's 100 Mbps Ethernet connection to our
Internet peering points, has a minimum of 1 to 1 redundancy.
We simply do not tolerate downtime, packet loss, or
latency.

Security
At Atlantech we share our customer's concerns about
the security of their equipment and data, and we have
deployed the most stringent measures to protect our
customer's assets. We have a wide range of security
features at all of our locations including motion sensors,
and 24×7 secured access, as well as video camera
surveillance and security breach alarms. We require
advance notification and a valid photo ID for any visitor
admittance to our facilities.

Peering Relationships
Atlantech Online currently maintains several Gigabits of Internet Peering bandwidth through
Level3, Savvis, Tiscali, Global Crossing, and AboveNet, as well as many private peering relationships.

1 Gbps through Savvis, Ashburn, VA

1 Gbps through Level3, Ashburn, VA

10 Gbps through private peering relationships, Ashburn, VA

Performance
Atlantech Online utilizes patented route optimization technology that
monitors the performance of our peers and optimizes the path to
destinations to provide the best internet experience for our customers.
This is all done in real-time, so network problems that occur upstream
from Atlantech Online can be seen and subsequently routed around, using
a different peer or path. These tests for both latency and packet loss
have proven to provide faster and more reliable network access than our
competitors.
